Chart Recurrent Methodology

When does a song move to recurrent on the chart? It With this in mind, the CDX Positive Country recurrent is one of the more challenging issues we encountered policy grades each chart position on a curve, using in creating the CDX TRACtion Positive Country chart an algorithm that considers the chart position and system. Rather than relying on subjective editorial spin history for that song. Newly serviced singles are decisions, we’ve chosen to automate this process using allowed 20 weeks to chart before being removed from the weekly chart data as a marker. chart consideration. Once a status change is actively being considered by the algorithm, the cumulative We strive to avoid having singles past their prime amount of spin loss from the single’s previous peak spin create a logjam on the chart, because that stifles upward count is the trigger. The allowable spin loss varies as a momentum for up-and-coming singles. But we also try percentage, depending on the chart position. to ensure that singles “on the bubble” are not removed prematurely. As long-time chart watchers know, singles In addition to making sure that only singles with often take a while to establish a solid base among early significant downward movement become recurrent, believers at radio before they truly find their legs. Due this methodology also benefits slow-developing singles to any number of reasons, the path to peak chart position in several ways. For instance, the allowable spin loss rarely includes straight-line, week-over-week spin and/ (as a percentage) is very generous at the lower reaches or chart position growth. of the chart to accommodate the lower spin counts. Additionally, if a single is at risk of being moved to On a monitored airplay chart like CDX Positive recurrent status with two consecutive weeks of minor Country, the reality is that new singles bounce around spin loss, it can still return to positive spin growth the a bit spin-wise and position-wise, particularly in the following week, which will reset the clock. lower half of the chart. Even small spin increases and decreases can be magnified as fairly significant up-or- down chart position moves.
